As can be seen in <URL: http://bugs.debian.org/648604 > and
<URL: http://bugs.debian.org/709521 >, some times display managers fail
to update the utmp database of currently logged in users, and this cause
killer to throw out logged in users.
While this definitely is a bug in lightdm and other display managers to
not update utmp and wtmp, we could consider asking the consolekit module
to list local users when utmp is empty.
Something similar to this might work (the patch is incomplete and
untested):

The output from ck-list-sessions look like this:

Should we try to extend killer like this?
